I’m trying to set up a minecart system where multiple tracks can turn left while keeping the powered rail straight. The only solution I’ve found so far is to put the powered rail last, but this causes them to link and mess up the direction. Has anyone else figured out how to manage this without the powered rails interfering when they shouldn’t? Any advice would be appreciated!

I think I might have a possible workaround. Try placing a detector rail on the main track before the split. It could help redirect the carts without interfering with the power. When the cart hits the detector rail, you could use it to switch the tracks ahead. It’s not foolproof, but worth a shot!
It could be beneficial to use a system where tracks are elevated at different levels. You can make the minecarts fall onto a rail coming from above, this way they won’t interfere as much with the powered rails. Just ensure you’ve got the ramps set up nicely for a seamless transition.
